el clasico crazy

haha i must admit i only knew of the director of that shit film who was called benigni, i just couldnae understand his pronounciation/didn't know about bernini.

pronounce an r english people

on reflection i've seen some of his work, in my defence i was 10.

yeah basically i assumed there was an artist called "benigni". i am chastened.

Real Madrid v Barcelona line-ups:
Real: Casillas, Marcelo, Carvalho, Sergio Ramos, Arbeloa, Pepe, Xabi Alonso, Khedira, Ozil, Ronaldo, Di Maria.
Barcelona: Pinto, Alves, Pique, Mascherano, Adriano, Sergio Busquets, Iniesta, Xavi, Messi, Villa, Pedro.

ozil, i think? just had the ball cleared off the line

how the fuck was busquiets not sent off for that?

my stream has no commentators and also i am eating cereal so these names might not be right.

well this game feels kinda shitty post-NLD

yeah what is this ballroom dancing chess hybrid shit

gonna just wait till et

this is elite football xp

as compared to kraatxi football

really? i just see dull.

someone hits it long, someone gets tackled, the ball gets intercepted, someone hits it long, some gets tackled and so on. occasionally there is a foul or a proper pass.

roffles. pedro offside the first time something happens.

everything about that last move was perfection, and as boring as fuck.

The Mestalla is pretty much my ideal stadium. Why Valencia killed themselves trying to leave it I don't know.

adebayor looks like a clogger in this context

Marcelo keeping Messi in check.

I'm sorry but this is fantastic football chess

gah this game is so boring

Beautiful save from Pinto.

I think it is more to do with the NLD being possibly the best game I'll see this year and not being able to follow that up. Chess may be a beautiful game, but it isn't an exciting one.

RAFA!

fuck. looks like i'm likening that bloody e.t. pic to rafa.

Chess is not exciting?! If you didn't support Arsenal I'd SB u for that

<3 messi

Soooo many chances for Ronaldo lately.. Would pay good money to see him cry again tonight tbh

awes from xabi tho

Yes defo

Loving the rise of challops on the pitch, every foul being debated from now on.

Sorry I came in late, why was Ozil substituded in 70min already?

Oohhhhh ;_;

He's not going to cry anymore tonight is he now

Viva Ronaldo

ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLDDDDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Take that Lionel.

PERFECT header.

Who's crying now? or something

I can take it on the chin. Beautiful header, awful person etc.

Mou <3

Afellay <3 <3 <3

srsly....really enjoying this, despite the scoreline

^^ my sentiment exactly

had 1-0 RM and high score draw for the NLD in the office betting ring so good night fir me as it stands

Those high passes from the side are such a waste on Barca in the penalty box. Who do they think will head it in?

keita, now

I love that Mourinho looks exactly like me atm: both on the 'bench', tired, strung out, not caring and enjoying it all the same

I would totally watch a league with just Barca and Madrid, playing each other 36 times a season.

(which brings us back to chess again - just the best two, playing each other again and again and again)

I'm so happy there are two more games with these two.
